- No doubt about it, discus, shot put, and the javelin are awesome ways of
- dispatching an opponent.

- PS of the list parry_r listed, either jujutsu or aikido, or, well,
- why compromise? go for it all... aiki jujutsu! :-)

- PPS as for _which_ aiki jujutsu? well, not that I am biased at all, :-)
- but, if you want to do aiki jujutsu with Bagua palm changes for
- added effect, as far as I know, there is only one:
- Tenshin Shin'Yo Ryu 8-}
